Varun Dhawan attended a press conference in Delhi today to promote his much-anticipated film, Baby John, set to release on December 25. Fans and media gathered to hear the actor discuss his character, the film’s themes, and his personal journey into fatherhood. Adding to the excitement, the actor also launched the movie’s next song, ‘Bandobast’, which promises to be a key highlight of the film.
About Baby John
The gripping adaptation of the Tamil blockbuster Theri, which originally starred Thalapathy Vijay, has been directed by Atlee. The film follows the journey of a
father protecting his daughter while addressing broader societal issues like women’s safety and modern parenting. The movie’s narrative has been reshaped creatively to offer a contemporary perspective.
Dhawan explained the film’s essence, “This is a take on parenting today. It’s not just about entertaining the audience but also addressing important societal topics. There’s even a subplot inspired by real-life events called the 'pink case.’”
Varun Dhawan on Fatherhood and Its Impact
The role of a father has been portrayed by Dhawan with deep personal resonance. “When a man becomes a father to a girl child, you start realising what it means to be a man. It’s a transformative experience,” Dhawan shared.
As the conversation shifted towards personal milestones, Dhawan shared an emotional moment from his life, “Today is special for me because my six-month-old daughter started eating solid food for the first time.”
